answer text <p>Air quality is managed across a range of policy areas led by several departments, which are continuing to address this important issue. The primary focus in the short term is on bringing forward compliance with legal limits for NO<sub>2</sub> concentrations, and stakeholders from seven departments take part in the coordinated implementation and governance of the NO<sub>2 </sub>Plan. The principle cause of these emissions is transport, and that is why the Defra-DfT Joint Air Quality Unit continues to lead this work. A Ministerial Oversight Group for air quality is in place to ensure a coherent approach across Government, and gives ministers from Defra, DfT, DHSC, MHCLG and HMT direct oversight of the delivery of the Plan.</p> more like this

answer text <p>At the International Zero Emission Vehicle Summit in September, the Government announced that it would provide up to £2 million of support for e-cargo bikes. This followed a call for evidence on how the Government could best harness the opportunities for greener delivery in our towns and cities.</p><p> </p><p>The funding will contribute 20% of the purchase price of new e-cargo bikes up to the first £5,000 of any purchase price. This gives a maximum grant of £1,000 per bike, regardless of the purchase price of the bike. Funding will be conditional on individual businesses following a code of cycle safety good practice and will be split between larger fleets and smaller operators to ensure benefits are available to and spread between all sizes of business. Replacing traditional last mile delivery vehicles with electric delivery bikes can help towards cutting traffic, reducing congestion and cleaning up our air.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The public sector already has an important role to play on Britain’s railways, with Network Rail working closely with train operating companies to deliver services and improvements. The department is committed to making this collaboration between the public and private sectors even stronger on the East Coast.</p><p> </p><p>The Government is currently reviewing two options for the continuation of services on the East Coast. One is to allow Stagecoach to continue operating the service under a very strictly designed short-term arrangement. The second is for the franchise to be directly operated by the Department for Transport, through an operator of last resort. The Department will choose the option that offers best value for money for taxpayers and protects the interests of passengers.</p> more like this
